Quoted from Nacman:

I was, and still may at a later time, powder-coat some of the external metal. However, I really like the dark blue in the side art, so I went with a blue metal flake spray paint. Since this is going to be a home use game for me, it should wear ok.
Here are a few shots of the legs and back box hinge.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from Nacman:

I failed to mention and I think it’s really important is I bought a cheap sandblaster cabinet since I already had a large compressor. I sandblasted those legs and then wipe them down with solvent before I spray painted them. The legs looked like this lockdown bar assembly, which was also sandblasted.[quoted image]

OP

Quoted from Nacman:

This is a shot in the dark but I think I’ll ask anyway. I’m getting ready to start transferring all the playfield equipment to my new place yet.
My new play field has got the holes drilled for the Tnuts but it is not Tnutted.
There’s also are missing holes in the new playfield that are missing for the numerous bumper posts and Ramps that are secured with nuts on the bottom side that have that self locking Teflon on the old PF.
Last I have two wires that I am 99% sure where added after the fact and the are in the loom for playfield solenoids. Problem is the wires are cut on both ends of the loom so they’re not connected to anything and I can’t find anything that doesn’t have a missing connection. They are larger wires as if they may have carried higher amps than play field lighting for example. I’m going to attach pics but I have some questions as it relates to all three issue.
1) Since the new play field is clearcoated and the holes need to be drilled through the clearcoat I’m concerned that I may spider crack it when I do. SUGGESTIONS?
2) The holes that are missing, like the example pics with my two fingers on the old play field and in the new play field, how do I know how to exactly line up the holes where they belong?
3) Has anybody got any idea what that brown and blue wire might be or seen it somewhere done to another T2?
There’s no kind of template I can lay up on the new play field is there?[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
